February- the Month of Love? Unfortunately, for many, it could represent the Month of Grief. In January’s Blog I wrote about Living with a Broken Heart by Gary Sturgis and to reiterate the first part, it starts off with:
“Remember what the Tin Man said in the “Wizard of Oz” after he finally got a heart . . .
“Whew, did I miss it? Did I really miss the Christmas season going through without my loved one(s) that have died and left this world on a one-way ticket? Why did they leave me behind? Didn’t they realize how hard this was and I can’t bring relief or let go of this unbearable pain. I don’t like this feeling and I just can’t shake it. It hurts to the core of my very being and here I am in January – I’m not sure I can do this!”
